Letters OF Francis p. Blair in Atlantic.l
Let me tell you fact to make you sensi-
BILE of the deep-rooted, affectionate attach
nent of which the rough bosom of a war
worn veteran is susceptible. Earl has a
few days ago received from the Hermitage
Mrs. Jackson's portrait. He did not in
tend that the President should see it, but
stepped in by accident when Earl was
copying from 1t. He stood aud gsaed at it
for few moments with some fortitude,
until as the association rose in his mind he
began to weep, and his sobs became 80 deep
that Earl carried the picture away to re.
lieve him.
He has bible in which a great many
favorite passages were marked by his wife.
one of these he reads every morning re-
ligously.
This is devotion, but whether 1t be OF
the right kind leave you to judge.
He and / were sitting one day
alone on the sofa, and / alluded in some
way to his attachment for his little Rachel.
He said she was the solace of his waning
life, and that the father this adopted s1n)
had been nursed on the bosom of Mrs
Jackson. She felt for HIM all the tender
ness of a mother; that she parted with
him, even to 60 to Nashville to school
with reluctance, and looked for the return
ing Saturday with more anxiety than the
boy himself.

Drunkenness In Summer and winter.

there is much more drunkenness in sum-

to hear that some social philosopher had

where the heat has been almost intolerable
this summer, people have found out that
much beer drinking in hot weather is
dangerous and that, in consequences, the
venders OF soda water have enjoyed a
boom" at the expense of the saloo On
keepers. A friend of mine, who has a
mania for railroad information and statis-
tics, informed me that the number OF
drunken men in suburban trains on sum-
mer nights is almost double what it is in
winter. One cause may be that IN summer
the craving for amusement increases. In
cold weather man has q tendency to hiber-
nate; but in the spring and summer, when
nature awskes and rejoices, restless desire
for pleasure and liberty comes over the
human mind; and with some M the
pleasure of getting drunk and the llSe.ty
of intoxication are probably more easily
got at than any others.

An Old Republicans Opinion.

David Munsol, of Indianapolis, was ask
ed by q Times scribe last Saturday, what
he thought of the accused conspirators
He said that they were falsely accused and
we're only being prosecuted by a gang of
Republicans who had been stealing and
plunderiDg from the people for the past
twenty years. He further said that he
had been Republican all his life, bat had
seen 30 much OF Republican methods at
that place that he was disguised with their
acts Besides, he said, that one detalca-
ton after another had occurred under Re-
publican rule there, and the amount OF
stealing had never been made good to the
people. Several, Tresaurers of Marion

oils, were defaulters to the amount of sew.

all the ingenuity and skill that has been
brought to bear to bring her back 70 con-

tinues TO sleep day after day and has wasted
away physically until she is almost a

to be in the trance state and say she will

For some reason or another the papers

the Jews banished from Mauhatten Beach

years or more, and don't think the hotels

Hildreth's hotel and cottages, and Hoey's
